i'm located in doha, i'm from Morocco and i work in qatar,
the problem is having fiber optic in business is not easy, and having it in your home is easy, can you imagine that ?? me for example we have fiber optic at home but no chance in our business, i don't know why they make it that difficult for companies getting upgradedActually the US is like that too. I recently worked with a business right next to my house. I have great fiber in my home and the business could not get it. And that was right in Dallas which is a single city with three times the population of all Qatar!

Now that is really awful. Wow.

i suffer from this a lot, employees complain about the slow access of our remote resources (file server) in the remote office
-
why they implement this policy, because normally businesses who should have priority than homes

Where is the remote office? How many people are at each? Would a central file server in a datacenter make more sense so that each side gets downloads at 4Mb/s rather than using the 512Kb/s channel to send files to the other site?
-
Or, better yet, move the file server to someone's home, as silly as that sounds, this could actually be a good use of a "residential datacenter."

the remote site is located in the same city Doha, and we have 2 servers in the main office, on DC and File server, the second is an Application server, and some printers, in the remote office we don't have any server, but i'm planing to setup an additional DC in the branch office to minimize the load upon this weak link, and schedule the replication in the night between the 2 DC

@scottalanmiller hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, really you make me laugh , '''''''residential datacenter''''''''''''

but it is a good idea since home are better location for hosting these days
-
in the future we can think about hosting our data (files) in the cloud, but what about Application server, this is the problem we cannot install our application in an outside server in the cloud,

I coined that term in a discussion panel at SpiceWorld 2009. -

For legal reasons?

honestly i don't know, but i think that the IT company that sold us this application will not accept to install it in an hosted server as far as i can see
-
i didn't propose to them this idea yet, but i have a feeling that they will not accept

Oh, I see. I've never heard of that stipulation in a contract. How do they define hosted? Likely an terminology that would limit hosting would also stop you using a VPN as you are self hosting to another location in that case (to the remote office, you are the hosted application facility.) It would be a bizarre legal stipulation to disallow any enterprise use of the software. Not that that doesn't regularly happen, but it would be seriously bizarre.

Is it a software vendor that you can disclose?

No we cannot disclose with this vendor since employees get familiar with the application and also we already bought the licence of multiple users, we cannot cancel anything with them,
